AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend title 10 of the general statutes to require teachers, school administrators, and similar school employees to carry a special wireless signal card that, when pressed, will immediately alert law enforcement and summon them to the school location. The purpose of this legislation is to provide a quick and direct method for school personnel to rapidly call for emergency assistance in the event of a potential school shooting or other serious threat. By creating a dedicated wireless signaling mechanism, the bill aims to enhance school safety by enabling instant communication with law enforcement during critical incidents, potentially reducing response times and improving the ability of school staff to protect students in emergency situations.
